Intel driver KMS and exa = black screen

Hello, I just upgraded to xorg 1.6 today and have enabled KMS thanks to the howto thread in the fourms. Everything works great with UXA, It is when I try to enable EXA and try to startX I get a black screen and have to do a hard reboot. Does anyone else experiance this?  My graphics chip is a Intel x4500HD.

KMS doesn't work with EXA. Newer drivers enable UXA automatically when KMS is used (but those "newer drivers" have other bugs), but the 2.6.3 version that moved to extra doesn't.

  • My macbook Pro Retina is 5 months old. I have nothing but a cursor and a black screen. What gives???

    I have nothing but a cursor and a black screen. It's only 5 months old! What gives here? This is my first Mac and I'll tell you, they aren't impressing me.

    Did you get it fixed at the store? I have this same problem my macbook pro that I bought at the end of December. I am not impressed and very unhappy that I now need to drive to some store to fix it. I tried to get it fixed through the phone but alas it still does not work.
    After spending as much money as I did for this thing that I've only had for less than three months and used maybe less than 10 times, I'm slightly upset. I need to have this working by Saturday.

  • MSI GE70 botting and then black screen :(

    Hello!
    I recently got my laptop back from service repair, because it had Hard drive problems, and HDD was changed with new one.
    But today, when I was playing a game, the PC froze, so i turned it off and now, I get to windows bootup sequence, and then black screen :(.
    Is there anything that could be done, or I would need to send it back to service repair and wait anohter month to get it back?
    Kind regards.

    Same problem here. The update killed my video. Tried rebooting three times. The audio is fine. I hear the reboot audio. I hear clicks when I press buttons on the remote. But, there's a blank screen.

    Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

  • I have just bought a brand new iMac plugged it in and nothing, black screen any suggestion, not a great start to my first mac experience

    I just bought a new iMac, plugged it in and nothing, black screen any suggestions and the apple support function is no help, real glad I bought the apple care plan and you can only use that if your machine turns on!

    If you bought the computer at an Apple Store return it. Let them know you aren't happy about your start in the Mac world. If you bought the computer online and have an Apple Store nearby you can take it there even though you didn't buy it there. Note: if going to an Apple store go online and make an appt with the Genius. Stores tend to be busy so this will give you a time to know you can walk in and pretty quickly get attention. Just walking in with a dead computer you may have to wait a while.
    No Apple store nearby? No problem, call AppleCare and they'll take care of you. Ask for expedited return & shipment and again, let the technician know you are new to the Apple world and not happy. The last time I brought home a dead computer I not only got a replacement right away but I got an Apple gift card for my inconvenience.

  • X230 Win 8.1 Pro Fingerprint single swipe power on and login black screen

    When i try to log on using the single swipe power on and login feature sometimes the screen will go to the login screen, the finger print scanner will flash, and then i get a black screen. I can see the mouse cursor, but nothing else. If I swipe my finger again, I will see the login screen again briefly, before it returns to a blank screen again. There is no way to get past this, aside from forcing the machine to power down (Hold down power key for 10 seconds).
    Does anyone have a solution for this. Powering on the device and logging in with a single swipe is a really great feature, but I need it to not brick logging in.
    Thanks for any help or advice.

    I apologize I didn't already provide these answers initially.
    Questions:1.  Does this happen 100% of the time, or is it intermittent?
    I have only noticed this intermittently.
    2.  Does it happen starting from full shutdown (press and hold SHIFT key while you shutdown the computer normally, then swipe to power on and log in).
    I have only had this problem when resuming from a state of hibernation.
    3.  Does it happen starting from sleep (swipe to resume the system from sleep and log in)
    I rarely sleep the system, but I recall it hanging once or twice when coming back from sleep as well.
    4.  Can you check "View all problem reports" screen in Action Center to see if any crash happens at the same time the problem occurs?
    the only problem reports that corresponds with the times this has happened today refer to an problem with the Anti malware Service Executable with the summary being MpTelemetry.
    5.  Can you export registry at these locations:
        a.  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\Credential Provider Filters]
        b.  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\Credential Providers]
    I have this, but unfortunately do not see how I can attach it this post.
    Edit: Here is a link to download it directly. Once you respond I'll disable this.
    Link removed
    It should also be noted that I do not have a problem when single swipe is disabled. (So I need to swipe twice. One to power on, and the other to log in.)

  • After using hibernation, it does not start up and has black screen

    My computer was fine for 2 yrs or so,now it will not startup!  After it was in hibernation, I came back a few hrs later and turned on the power and it has a black screen.  The only things that are lit are the left side blue dot and the f12 button.
    This computer worked perfectly until today, except it tok longer sometimes to come out of hibernation.
    I tries a hard reset according to what the HP website said, nothing worked!!
    Can anyone help ant tell me how to get this thing to work??
    Thanks,
    John

    Hey wealthylives,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    As the computer screen is remaining black/blank after the hard reset, I would suggest the following document 'Troubleshooting Black Screen Displays with No Error Messages During Startup or Boot'. Please follow through the steps outlined in order.
    Please let me know the outcome of the troubleshooting.
    Thank you.

  • AppleTV and Panasonic, black screen

    Hi,
    I just bought a new Panasonic TV(Panasonic 42" LCD-TV TX-L42U3E), and a new AppleTV(black one).
    When I first plugged in my AppleTV it just worked. After a few minutes I got a black screen, and from what I could understand the TV "lost" the AppleTV. Now the connections seems to be random, sometimes I have a connection for an hour, sometimes for just a few seconds.
    I tried with different cables and the result is the same, however, when I try on a different TV, it works fine.
    Any suggestions? Could it be the TV?

    OK, went to Bestbuy and purchased a micro USB adapter cable. Hooked it up and after completely unplugging both the power and HDMI on the AppleTV; and plugging the USB into the ATV and my MacBook running iTunes did iTunes recognize the ATV. Ran the update and when it finished iTunes instructed to unplug USB and re-plug HDMI and power. After a number of minutes (? Didn't  time it) AppleTV was up and ready for setup of accounts and network. Seems to work  AOK now. Enjoy!

  • Macbook pro will not wake up and shows black screen

    Purchased a MBP three weeks ago.  After putting the MBP to sleep it will not wake up.  Shows black screen and makes fan sound but will not start unless power off and then on again and at times this does not work.

  • Mac OSX install disc 1 won't work, it says "no bootable device" and a black screen

    My macbook came already with snow leopard, so I have the osx install disc and the applications install disc. So I'm meant to put in the osx (ie install disc 1) install disc which lets me install bootcamp, which I do, and click on "start the windows installer" and "start installation" in bootcamp assistant, however every time I restart the computer to try installing bootcamp it just says in white letters across a black screen "no bootable device" and "insert boot disc", which I have already done!!
    Am I missing something really dumb here, or is my disc faulty?

    From this guide
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Boot_Camp_Install-Setup_10.6.pdf
    Step 4: Install the Boot Camp Drivers for WindowsAfter installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software forWindows using your Mac OS X installation disc.
    The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, including AirPort,built-in iSight camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and thefunction keys on an Apple keyboard.
    The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and theApple Boot Camp system tray item.
    To install the Boot Camp drivers:
    1  Eject the Windows installation disc.
    2  Insert the Mac OS X disc.
    You have to be running your Windows OS (not Mac OSX) when you add the drivers from the Mac Install disk.

  • HT1414 my ipad air is frozen with the i tunes logo and a black screen it does not turn on or off with the red bar

    my i pad air is frozen because it has a black screen with just the I tunes icon but you can't turn it on or off or do anything please can you help

    I'm sorry. I missed your response earlier today.
    You will need to use recovery mode. You can start iTunes on your computer first. Then you plug the cable into the computer, hold down the home button on the iPad and plug the cable into the iPad.
    Use recovery mode
    Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
    Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
    Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
    Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
    When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.
    iTunes should open and display a message such as: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
    Use iTunes to restore your device.

  • Intel 21.5" and 27" owners - screen tilt?

    How far forward will the screen tilt? I currently have a first generation Intel (20"?) and it doesn't tilt very far, which makes it awkward for my little ones to get seen on the webcam...am curious if the angle is better on the new iMacs.
    This will help sway my decision on whether I get a 21.5 or 27....since the 27 is 3" taller..

    My 21.5" tilts forward to the same degree as my early 2006, just a little past vertical.

  • Touchpad screen unresponsive and also black screen

    Today, I updated my touchpad to the latest version. So during installation, I let it run and left it plugged into an outlet. However, when I came back to it an hour later, I just saw a black screen. I was able to reboot and see the HP logo again. But after booting, and seeing the lock screen logo, the screen would go blank after a few seconds. I did the USB recovery mode as well but I was presented with the PIN entry screen and I couldn't enter my PIN as well.
    Any ideas on how to resolve this?
    This is a brand new Touchpad and the only thing done here was update from the original firmware to a newer update and then now to the latest update.
    I searched online and can't find anybody with a similar issue as this.
    Also, tried using WebOS doctor but am stuck at the part where it is suppose to detect the Touchpad and cannot press "Next" to continue.
    Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

    When you said "USB recovery mode", do you mean you tried to use the webOS doctor to restore it?
    I'd try a simple reboot again (press and hold both the center button and the power switch together for over 15 seconds), and if this doesn't work, then the webOS doctor.
    If the doctor doesn't work, and the device is still unresponsive, then call HP for a repair/replacement.
    See my post at the top of this section on "How to doctor a TouchPad" for instructions.
